Answer:

$1032.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

salary = $950 every two weeks

tax rate = 8%

let the initial pay be x

and let the pay after tax deduction be p

p= x-8/100x

Hence the equation for his pay is

p=x-0.08x-------------1

subsitute

950=x-0.08x

950= 0.92x

divide both sides by 0.92

x= 950/0.92

x=$1032.60

The employee make $1032.60 every two weeks before taxes

PLEASE HELLP 25 POINTS

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

a^6 + 4 a^5 + 5 a^4 - 5 a^2 - 4 a - 1


Discussion:

You may need to clean things up a bit but suppose that

S(1) = a-1

S(2) = a^2 -1

Since this is a geometric series, the geometric ratio is given by


S(2)/ S(1) =  (a^2 -1)/ (a-1)

               =  (a+1)(a-1)/ (a-1)

               = a+1

Conclusion:

S(2) = (a+1) S(1) = (a+1) (a-1)

S(3)  = (a+1) S(2) = (a+1) (a+1) (a-1)   = (a+1)^ (3-1) (a-1)

S(4) = (a+1) S(3)  = (a+1) * (a+1)^2 (a-1) ) = (a+1)^(4-1) (a-1)

in general.....

S(n) = (a+1)^ (n-1) (a-1)

So

S(6) = (a+1)^ (6-1) (a-1)

      =  (a-1) (a+1) ^ 5

     =  a^6 + 4 a^5 + 5 a^4 - 5 a^2 - 4 a - 1


Hope I didn't screw something here!


Thank you,

MrB

What is the coordinate of point P on the line segment AB that is 3/4 of the distance from A to B for A(2,5) and B(6,9)?
Brut [27]

Answer:

p  is (3.71, 6.71)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p is at the distance of 3/4 from A to B

it mean that point p divides the line AB into 3:4 ratio.

and

if there are two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y22) which is divided by point p in the ratio m:n then

coordinates of point p (x,y) is given

p (x = (n*x1+m*x2)/m+n , y = (n*y1+m*y2)/m+n )

________________________________________________

Given the points AB

A(2,5)

B(6,9)

m:n = 3:4

thus,

p (x = (4*2+3*6)/7 , y = (4*5+3*9)/7 )

p (x = (4*2+3*6)/7 , y = (4*5+3*9)/7 )

p (x = (26/7 , y = 47/7 )

P ( x = 3.71, y = 6.71)

Thus, coordinates of point p  is (3.71, 6.71) which is  at  3/4 of the distance from A to B for A(2,5) and B(6,9)/

4*5=20 for the denominators

you can simplify this to make it 3/10 ✔️

2*5-10 for the numerators

6*5=30 for the denominators

you can simplify this to make it 1/3 ❌

1*1=1 for the numerators

10*5 for the denominators

you can turn this into 1/50 ❌

1*3=3 for the numerators

2*5=10 for the denominators

you can turn this into 3/10 ✔️

hope this helps! have a nice day! :)
